AW4416 Added/modified MIDI functions MIDI-related functionality has been significantly enhanced in version 2.0. The following functions and specifications have been added or modified. The various items in the previous MIDI Setup page and MIDI Sync page have been reorganized into the MIDI Setup 1 page and MIDI Setup 2 page. You can now use control changes or parameter changes to operate the parameters of the AW4416 from an external MIDI device. Internal AW4416 settings can now be output via MIDI. A MIDI Remote function has been added, allowing you to use faders 1 16 and [ON] keys 1 16 to control external MIDI devices. As an MTC output destination, you can now select MIDI/TO HOST/OPTION (option slot 2) in addition to the previous choice of the MTC OUT connector. MTC is now transmitted from the MTC OUT connector at all times. As the port used to transmit/receive MIDI messages, you can now select OPTION (option slot 2) in addition to the previous choices of MIDI/TO HOST. This setting will be valid when a I/O card able to transmit/receive MIDI messages (such as the mlan card MY8-mLAN expected to go on sale soon) is installed in option slot 2. The additions and changes for each item are explained below. Changes in the MIDI Setup page/ MIDI Sync page The various items in the previous MIDI Setup page and MIDI Sync page have been reorganized into the MIDI Setup 1 page and MIDI Setup 2 page. The content of the new pages is as follows. MIDI Setup 1 page Here you can select the MIDI transmit/receive channels, turn transmission and reception of various MIDI messages on/off, and make settings related to MIDI synchronization. 1 7 2 8 3 4 9 5 6 K J A PROGRAM CHANGE Here you can make settings for program change message transmission/reception. Each button has the following function. TX If this button is on, the program change number assigned to a scene will be transmitted when that scene is recalled. RX If this button is on, a scene will be recalled when the program change number assigned to that scene is received. OMNI If this button is on, program changes of all MIDI channels will be received regardless of the Rx CH (Receive MIDI channel) setting (8). ECHO If this button is on, received program changes will be thru-ed (retransmitted) without change from the MIDI OUT connector/to HOST connector. B CONTROL CHANGE Here you can make settings for control change message transmission/reception. Each button has the following function. TX If this button is on, operating a parameter of the AW4416 will cause the control change assigned to that parameter in the CTL Asgn. page to be transmitted. RX If this button is on, receiving a control change will cause the AW4416 parameter assigned to that control change in the CTL Asgn. page to change. OMNI If this button is on, control changes of all MIDI channels will be received regardless of the Rx CH (Receive MIDI channel) setting (8). 6
ECHO If this button is on, received control changes will be thru-ed (retransmitted) without change from the MIDI OUT connector/to HOST connector/ option slot. C PARAMETER CHANGE Here you can make transmission/reception settings for system exclusive messages that control the AW4416 s parameters (parameter change messages). Each button has the following function. TX If this button is on, operating a parameter of the AW4416 will cause the corresponding parameter change to be transmitted. RX If this button is on, receiving a parameter change will cause the corresponding AW4416 parameter to change. ECHO If this button is on, received parameter changes will be thru-ed (retransmitted) without change from the MIDI OUT connector/to HOST connector/option slot. D BULK Here you can make settings for bulk data reception. If the BULK RX button is on, the AW4416 will be able to receive bulk dump data and messages requesting a bulk dump (bulk dump requests). E MTC SYNC When using MTC (MIDI Time Code) to synchronize the AW4416 song with an external MIDI device, this setting selects whether the AW4416 will function as the MTC master (MASTER button on) or MTC slave (SLAVE button on). In the previous version, the MTC MASTER indicator in the level meter/counter was lit or dark depending on whether MTC output from the MTC OUT connector was turned on or off. However in version 2.0, MTC is output from the MTC OUT connector at all times. For this reason, the lit/dark status of the MTC MASTER indicator now indicates the on/off state of MTC output from the MIDI OUT connector/to HOST connector/option slot 2. F SYNC OFFSET When using the AW4416 as an MTC slave, this lets you shift the absolute time of the AW4416 relative to the received MTC. The range is - 24:00:00:00.00 +24:00:00:00.00 G Tx CH (Transmit channel) This specifies the channel (1 16) of the MIDI messages that will be transmitted from the AW4416. H Rx CH (Receive channel) This specifies the channel (1 16) of the MIDI messages that receive received by the AW4416. I MMC DEVICE This sets the device ID (1 127) used to distinguish between devices when MMC (MIDI Machine Control) messages are used to perform remote control between the AW4416 and external MIDI devices. J MMC MODE Use the following three buttons to make settings for MMC reception and transmission. OFF button If this button is on, the AW4416 will not transmit or receive MMC. MASTER button If this button is on, the corresponding MMC command will be transmitted from MIDI OUT/ TO HOST connector/option slot when you operate the transport of the AW4416. SLAVE button If this button is on, the AW4416 will obey MMC commands received from MIDI IN/TO HOST connector/option slot. In order to use MMC, the device ID of the AW4416 and the external MIDI device must match. The device ID of the AW4416 is specified by the MMC DEVICE setting (9). K SYNC AVERAGE This sets the permissible range of variation in MTC timing when using the AW4416 as an MTC slave. Select one of the following three settings. OFF button If this button is on, the permissible range will be the least, and the AW4416 will synchronize to incoming MTC with the highest precision. However if MTC with significant variation is received, synchronization may be lost or become unstable. This setting is suitable when two AW4416 units are being operated in synchronization. 1 button/2 button Turning on the 1 button will increase the permissible range, and turning on the 2 button will set the permissible range to the maximum setting. These settings are suitable when an external device with significant variation in MTC (such as a tape recorder or computer-based sequencer) is used as the MTC master. The SYNC AVERAGE setting is valid only when the word clock source is set to INT (internal clock). If the AW4416 is synchronized to an external clock, operation will automatically be the same as when this setting is OFF. 7

Using control changes to operate AW4416 parameters In version 2.0, AW4416 parameters can be assigned to control changes, so that AW4416 operations can be recorded/played back on a MIDI sequencer or other external MIDI device. Assigning a parameter to a control change 1 Press the [MIDI] key [F4] (CTL Asgn.) key. The MIDI screen CTL Asgn. page added in version 2.0 will appear. In this page you can assign AW4416 internal parameters to control change numbers. Each part of the screen has the following function. 2 Move 3 Move the cursor to the CTL CHG. numerical box, and use the [DATA/JOG] dial to select the control change number that you want to assign. the cursor to the various fields in the PARAMETER area, and use the [DATA/JOG] dial to set the parameter and its values. For the available parameters and values, refer to page 28. 1 2 Parameter 1 Parameter 3 Parameter 2 3 Of the parameters that can be assigned, channel fader, AUX send, [ON] key, EQ, and pan operations can be recorded in automix. By using automix to record these operations, and using your MIDI sequencer to record operations of the remaining parameters, you can minimize the amount of MIDI messages that are transmitted and received between the AW4416 and your MIDI sequencer. A CTL CHG. (Control change number) Move the cursor to this area and use the [DATA/ JOG] dial to select a control change number from the range of 0 95 and 102 119. B PARAMETER This area shows the parameter that is assigned to each control change. In the left column (parameter 1), select the type of parameter that you want to control. In the center and right columns (parameters 2/3), specify the values required for that parameter. Control change numbers to which no parameter has been assigned will be displayed as NO ASSIGN. C INITIALIZE This button resets the control change assignments to the default state. Control change numbers 0 and 32 are defined as Bank Select (messages used to switch the voice banks of a synthesizer, etc.). On some MIDI sequencers, bank select messages are handled differently than other control changes, and therefore may not be suitable for use in parameter operations. [Reference pages] Details of the CTL Asgn. page P.27 For details on the parameters assigned to each control change number when the AW4416 is in the default state, refer to page 30. 9
PROFESSIONAL AUDIO WORKSTATION AW4416 Recording/playing back parameter operations on a MIDI sequencer Here s how you can use control changes to record/ play back AW4416 parameter operations on a MIDI sequencer. 1 Connect the AW4416 and your MIDI sequencer as shown in the following diagram, and make settings so that both devices will operate in synchronization. With these settings, operating a parameter on the AW4416 itself will cause the control change assigned in the CTL Asgn. page to be transmitted. When a control change is received from an external device, the corresponding parameter will change. MTC master AW4416 MTC OUT connector MIDI IN 1 connector MIDI OUT/THRU MIDI IN 2 connector Control connector changes MIDI IN connector MTC Control changes MIDI OUT connector MTC slave MIDI sequencer 4 Move the cursor to the numerical boxes in the MIDI CH. area, and use the [DATA/ JOG] dial to specify the transmit MIDI channel and receive MIDI channel. Make sure that MIDI is selected as the transmission/reception port for MIDI messages, and that OUT is selected as the function of the MIDI THRU/ OUT connector. When recording/playing back control changes on your MIDI sequencer, make sure that the MIDI Thru function (sometimes called Patch Thru or MIDI Echo ) of your MIDI sequencer is turned off. If this function is on, the control changes transmitted from the AW4416 will be immediately sent back to the AW4416, causing malfunctions. 2 Press the [MIDI] key [F1] (MIDI Setup 1) key.

When recording parameter operations on your sequencer, you should turn automix off (DISABLE). If automix is on (ENABLE), the control changes corresponding to parameters recorded in the automix will also be transmitted simultaneously. the parameters to which control changes are assigned. As the parameter is changed, the corresponding control change will be transmitted, and recorded on the MIDI sequencer. you are finished recording, press the [STOP] key. your MIDI sequencer in playback-ready mode. to a point earlier than where you begin recording parameter operations, and play back the song. When control changes from the MIDI sequencer are received by the AW4416 while it is running, the corresponding parameter will change. 10
Using parameter changes to perform AW4416 operations In version 2.0, a type of system exclusive message called parameter changes can be used (instead of control changes) to operate internal parameters of the AW4416. Here s how to record/play back parameter changes on your MIDI sequencer. 1 Make settings on the AW4416 and on your MIDI sequencer so that they will operate in synchronization using MTC. For details on connections, refer to page 10. Make sure that MIDI is selected as the transmission/reception port for MIDI messages, and that OUT is selected as the function of the MIDI THRU/ OUT connector. 5 Operate 6 When 7 Put 8 On the desired parameters on the AW4416.

Newly added MIDI Remote function The new MIDI Remote function lets you use faders 1 16 and [ON] keys 1 16 to control a connected external MIDI device. About the MIDI Remote function MIDI Remote is a function that lets you assign specific MIDI messages to faders 1 16 and [ON] keys 1 16, so that these messages will be transmitted when you operate the corresponding fader or [ON] key. The following types of messages can be assigned. Messages that can be assigned to faders MIDI messages whose value changes in a range of 0 127 can be assigned to faders. For example if you assign control change #7 (Volume) to a fader and specify a range of 0 127 as the control change value, operating the fader will control the volume of a MIDI tone generator. Control change number 7 Value= 127 Transmitted Value= 0 9 Make sure that the transport of the AW4416 is stopped, and transmit bulk data from your MIDI sequencer. When all bulk data has been received, the corresponding settings and/or libraries will be updated. [Reference pages] Details on the Bulk Dump page P.31 Messages that can be assigned to [ON] keys MIDI messages whose value switches to 0 or 127 can be assigned to [ON] keys. For if you assign control change #64 (Hold) to an [ON] key and make settings so that the value switches to either 0 or 127, turning the [ON] key on (lit) will transmit control change #64 with a value of 127 (Hold On), and turning it off (dark) will transmit control change #64 with a value of 0 (Hold Off). Control change number 64 (value=127) Control change number 64 (value=0) Transmitted Transmitted ON ON ON 13
AW4416 You can also make settings so that a MIDI message with a fixed value is transmitted only when the [ON] key is turned on (lit). For example if you assign a program change #1 message, the corresponding program change message will be transmitted each time you turn the [ON] key on. In this state, you can press the [F1] key to access the REMOTE screen. Program change number 1 Transmitted Program change number 1 Transmitted ON ON ON ON ON Using the MIDI Remote function with the default settings With the default settings, MIDI messages are already assigned to some of the faders and [ON] keys.

PROFESSIONAL AUDIO WORKSTATION 6 Operate faders 1 16/[ON] keys 1 16. The MIDI messages assigned to the corresponding fader/[on] key will be transmitted from the MIDI OUT/THRU connector. Even when the REMOTE screen is displayed, the function of the faders and [ON] keys of the stereo output channel will not change. The Remote A/Remote B fader positions and [ON] key on/off status can be saved in a scene. Fader and [ON] key operations can also be recorded in automix. By using automix to record operations separately in each page, you can perform up to 32 channels of fader/[on] key operations. Assigning a MIDI message to a fader The MIDI Remote function lets you assign a MIDI message of up to 16 bytes to each fader/each [ON] key. A message can be assigned in one of two ways. You can input the desired message manually, one byte at a time. Or you can capture a MIDI message received from the MIDI IN connector/to HOST connector/ option slot, and assign it either without change or after editing it. Here we will explain how to transmit a modulation wheel message (control change #1) from a synthesizer to the AW4416, and assign it to a desired fader. 1 Connect the MIDI OUT/THRU connector of the AW4416 to the MIDI IN connector of your synthesizer, and the MIDI IN connector of the AW4416 to the MIDI OUT connector of your synthesizer. MIDI IN connector MIDI OUT connector In the MIDI Setup 1 page, make sure that the ECHO button in the CONTROL CHANGE area is turned off. If the ECHO button is turned on, control changes received from the external device will be re-transmitted back to the external device, causing malfunctions. In the MIDI Setup 2 page, make sure that the MIDI OUT/THRU switch is set to OUT. The TX, RX, and OMNI buttons in the CONTROL CHANGE area of the MIDI Setup 1 page will not affect MIDI Remote operations. 2 Press the [MIDI] key. 3 Hold down the [SHIFT] key and press the [F1] key to access the REMOTE screen. 4 Press 1 2 3 one of the [F1] [F4] keys to display the fader/[on] key to which you want to assign a MIDI message.

Areas 1 and 2 will show the MIDI messages that are assigned to the fader and [ON] key of that channel. AW4416 MIDI OUT/THRU connector MIDI IN connector MIDI keyboard 15
AW4416 6 Move 7 Operate the cursor to the LEARN button located above the message display area (fader), and press the [ENTER] key. The fader LEARN button will be turned on. While this button is on, channel messages (note-on/off, control change, program change, etc.) or system exclusive messages received from an external device will be captured automatically, and input in the MIDI message display area of the fader. If more than one MIDI message is received while the LEARN button is on, the last-received MIDI message will be used. By holding down the [SHIFT] key and pressing the [F4] key, you can directly switch the fader LEARN button on/off. the modulation wheel of your synthesizer. The captured message (control change #1) will be input into the fader message area. If a control change is received, the byte corresponding to the variable value of 0 127 (the third byte) will be input as FAD. This indicates that the fader can be used to vary the value in a range of 0 127. 8 Make 9 Make sure that a MIDI message has been input, and then move the cursor to the fader LEARN button and press the [ENTER] key to turn the LEARN button off. You can turn this off directly by holding down the [SHIFT] key and pressing the [F4] key. sure that the Remote function of the currently-displayed page is enabled (ENABLE), and operate the fader to which the MIDI message was assigned. As you raise and lower the fader, control changes will be transmitted with values varying in the range of 0 127. If you want to assign a name to the fader 10 to which the MIDI message was assigned, move the cursor to the NAME EDIT button for the fader, and press the [ENTER] key. The NAME EDIT popup window will appear. Use the character palette to input a name, 11 and move the cursor to the OK button and press the [ENTER] key. The name you input will be displayed below the channel button located in the lower part of the display. When a MIDI message has been captured, a value of END will automatically be input at the byte that follows the last-received MIDI message. If you use the LEARN button to capture a channel message, the MIDI channel of the captured message will be used without change as the transmission MIDI channel. If FAD is not specified within the MIDI message, operating the fader will not transmit the MIDI message. If a MIDI message that is longer than 16 bytes is received, only the first 16 bytes will be input. In this case, the END value will not be input, meaning that no MIDI message will be transmitted when you operate the fader. The edited content of the REMOTE screen is saved as part of the song. If you want to return the settings of the displayed page to the factory condition, hold down the [SHIFT] key and press the [F5] key. 16
PROFESSIONAL AUDIO WORKSTATION Assigning a MIDI message to an [ON] key You can assign a desired MIDI message to an [ON] key so that the message will be transmitted when you press the key. As an example, we will explain how you can use a sustain pedal connected to your synthesizer to assign a Hold-on message (control change #64 with a value of 127) and Hold-off message (control change #64 with a value of 0) to [ON] key 1 of the Remote A 1-8 page. 1 Connect a sustain pedal to your synthesizer, the MIDI OUT/THRU connector of the AW4416 to the MIDI IN connector of your synthesizer, and the MIDI IN connector of the AW4416 to the MIDI OUT connector of your synthesizer. In the MIDI Setup 1 page, make sure that the ECHO button in the CONTROL CHANGE area is turned off. If the ECHO button is turned on, control changes received from the external device will be re-transmitted back to the external device, causing malfunctions. In the MIDI Setup 2 page, make sure that the MIDI OUT/THRU switch is set to OUT. The TX, RX, and OMNI buttons in the CONTROL CHANGE area of the MIDI Setup 1 page will not affect MIDI Remote operations. 4 Press 5 Press one of the [F1] [F4] keys to display the fader/[on] key to which you want to assign a MIDI message. The Remote A 1-8 page is selected in this example. the [SEL] key for the channel to which you want to assign a MIDI message. The display area will show the MIDI messages that are currently assigned to the fader and [ON] key of that channel.

AW4416 7 Operate 8 Turn 9 Move the sustain pedal connected to your synthesizer. A control change #64 (Hold-on) message with a value of 127 (hexadecimal 7F) will be input in the [ON] key message area. In this message, the first value in the boxes extending toward the right (i.e., the first byte) is the MIDI channel, the second is the control number, and the third byte is the actual value of the message. off the LEARN button, and take your foot off of the sustain pedal. If you take your foot off the sustain pedal before turning off the LEARN button, a control change #64 with a value of 0 (hexadecimal 00) will be input in the MIDI message display area. However even in this case, the following steps will not be affected. the cursor to the location of the third byte, and use the [DATA/JOG] dial to change the value to SW. The byte whose value was set to SW will be transmitted as 127 (hexadecimal 7F) when the [ON] key is turned on (lit), and as 0 (hexadecimal 00) when the [ON] key is turned off (dark). Make sure that the Remote function of the 10 currently-displayed page is enabled (ENABLE), and operate the [ON] key to which the MIDI message was assigned. When you press the [ON] key, the key LED will light and a Hold-on message will be transmitted. When you release the [ON] key, the key LED will go dark and a Hold-off message will be transmitted. It is also possible to change the operation of the [ON] key so that the on/off status is switched each time you press the key. For details refer to the explanation of the LATCH/UNLATCH button on page 34. If you want to assign a name to the [ON] 11 to which the MIDI message was assigned, move the cursor to the NAME EDIT button for the [ON] key, and press the [ENTER] key. The NAME EDIT popup window will appear. Use the character palette to input a name, 12 and move the cursor to the OK button and press the [ENTER] key. The name you input will be displayed below the channel button located in the lower part of the display. The edited content of the REMOTE screen is saved as part of the song. It is also possible to input an entire MIDI message manually in this way. In this case, be sure to specify END at the end of the MIDI message. If you want a specific MIDI message to be transmitted each time you press [ON] (for example if you have assigned a program change), it is not necessary to input the SW value. [Reference pages] Details on the Remote A 1-8/Remote A 9-16/Remote B 1-8/Remote B 9-16 pages P.33 If you input a MIDI message manually, it is possible to input an inappropriate or invalid message. If such a MIDI message is transmitted to a connected external device, the device may malfunction. Please use caution. 18
